ROOSEVELT’S POV

My soul was torn into pieces, and my whole body was shaking because I had no strength left in my bones to see Lorna lying helplessly on that hospital bed.

I closed my eyes, rested my chin against the edge of the mattress, and buried my face in the blanket. Every breath inside my chest felt heavy, and I made up my mind right there that if my daughter's heart stopped beating, I was never going to find joy again in this life.

The fear in my head was so blinding that I could not eve

    ROOSEVELT’S POV"Nixie!! Nixie!!" I shouted as Nixie hurried into my office at the sound of my voice."Roosevelt! What is it? Why are you screaming my name like that?" She asked, surprised at the tension she saw on my face."Nixie, come and look at this screen and tell me if I am losing my mind," I growled, pointing my finger straight at my monitor.Obviously since yesterday I did not sleep for one second last night because of that picture of my house sent to my phone, so my eyes were bloodshot and my whole body was shaking with anger.My heart was pounding like a drum in my chest as I yanked my desk drawer open and grabbed my drawing book and slapped the book down on the desk right next to the screen because I wanted to prove to myself that I was not crazy.Nixie leaned over my shoulder so close that her breath was hot against my ear, her hands gripping the wooden desk."This is impossible, Rose," Nixie whispered, her breath smelling of coffee as her eyes jumped back and forth betwe

    ROOSEVELT’S POVThe next morning, I sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the message on my phone for the hundredth time. The threat was still fresh in my head, and my eyes were burning because I had not slept all through the night. I kept asking myself who could have done this. Every small sound outside the window made my skin cold, but I knew I had to pull myself together because my children needed to eat and get ready for school. I forced my legs to stand up from the bed, and went straight into Lorna's room to wake her up."Wakie! Wakie!”“Wake up, my sweet girl, it is time for school," I whispered softly into her ear, sitting on the side of her mattress and rubbing her back gently with my hand.Lorna moved her body under the blanket, rubbed her sleepy eyes with her fist, and looked up at my face with a smile."Goodmorning mama” “Goodmorning my love, how are you feeling this morning?” I asked, beaming with smiles all over my face. “Mama, my throat does not hurt so much today,

Every breath inside my chest felt heavy, and I made up my mind right there that if my daughter's heart stopped beating, I was never going to find joy again in this life.The fear in my head was so blinding that I could not even hear the nurses moving around the room. I reached out my trembling fingers and squeezed her hand as tightly as I could."Please, Lorna! Do not leave your mother in this world," I whispered into her pillow, my tears soaking through the bedsheet. "Julian is at home waiting for us, and I promise you that I will never let anyone hurt you again if you just open your eyes for me."I stayed in that position for a long time, listening to my own ragged breathing and praying with every single part of m

Obviously I was not expecting any fucking calls, Atleast not at this critical moment, so why now? I ignored the call and started the engine as I drove us straight back home without saying a word about the call.When we finally got home, I pressed the wall button near the entrance to call the guard at the main gate.I was boiling inside of me because my mind was racing with fear.
